Washed Up Has Been Geena Davis Wants To Be Relevant

Never was attractive has been, Geena Davis now spends her days bit#*ing and moaning about so called gender inequality in Hollywood.

(Gawker) – When Geena Davis waded through the miasma of G-rated movies with her young daughter, she noticed a troubling phenomenon: male characters outnumbered female characters by a pretty striking margin. What’s more, male characters were more often portrayed in leadership positions, meaning that, if a young female viewer were to take away a lesson in gender politics from many of these movies, it’d be that men fit more naturally into positions of power than women, which is of course bullshit.

Davis shared with GOOD’s Sarah Stankorb some troubling findings about girls who are well-versed in popular media from an early aged, noting that

the more hours of television a girl watches, the fewer options she thinks she has in life. So, we’re clearly not showing enough opportunities for girls, showing female characters doing and achieving things and being in leadership positions.
